Abstract
Metadata standards have been discussed since years in the environmental
domain. Although the community has agreed that metadata are important
for information finding, an globally accepted standard is still
missing. Different requirements in diverse environmental application
domains, countries and organisations have led to a huge variety
on metadata vocabularies and technologies. Even projects using existing
standards tend to adjust them slightly to their own requirements.
A consequence is that new metadata repositories are developed or
adapted to the new meta data element sets over and over again .
In this paper we present a novel approach for the automation of
metadata repository development. As input the system requires only
an XML Schema describing the metadata vocabulary. Out of this schema
the user interface, database schema and the search, retrieval and
upload mechanism are generated during a batch process. The user
interface layout can be further controlled by templates. The system
is developed for the NOKIS project and evaluated by generating a
metadata repository for an adjusted ISO 19115 metadata element set.
